If flag football gets added to the 2028 Olympics, Team USA won't have to look hard to find its first player.

Five-time Pro Bowler Rob Gronkowski told TMZ Sports he would be happy to play for the United States in the Olympics.

"Hopefully there's no tryouts and they just accept me," he said. "But I'm in. I'm going for that if there is flag football in the Olympics in 2028. USA going all the way!"

The International Olympic Committee executive board recommended five sports be added to the 2028 rotation, including flag football, cricket, baseball/softball, lacrosse and squash.
